i bought the HP Pavilion Media Center m8400f Desktop PC in feb of 2008 for only $450 (A Steal At the Time)
now its handle everything ive wanted it to do since ive purchased it mostly light gaming and just watching medie
not reall hard on gaming because i own both a ps3 and xbox 360 so i purchase all my games for consoles to play online
but recently been wantin to upgrade to 64bit so i did and i upgraded my 3gb of ramm to 8gb of patriot pc2-6400
now yesterday i bought StarCraft2 (really only play blizzard games on my pc) and when i started the campaign the cut-scenes were totally screwed up beyond watchable and i know its my geforce 8500 GT
so i want to buy a new graphics card today but would like some advice before buying
now i have a 400 watt power supply and dont think size is going to be a problem since there nothing below the gpu for like 3 slots and plenty of apace length wise i can fit a whole ruler 12 ruler in there and still have space
so i only want to spend $100-$200 on card and dont want to replace my psu since i plan on doing my first whole build come christmas time and we'll be giving this pc to my wife since only thing she does is get on the internet and play sims games
so what do you suggest forums? http://img.tomshardware.com/forum/uk/icones/smilies/bounce.gif
